So I'm sitting there debating what oud I want to wear tonight, and I can't decide between Hindi or Silani... Philippines pops in my head. Then it hits me, I have a sample of this co-distillation of all three.
This oud is a wild ride, and I'm not sure I was ready for it. A real head spinner. Insanely complex, all three regions shine on their own at times, then combine at times, then go out in left field and smell like something completely it's own.
I can't even pick out individual notes because as soon as try I go oh that smells like silani, wait no hindi, wait no that's filipino, wait no what is that!?!?
I'm only a half hour into the ride, and I'm excited to see where the dry down goes. If the hindi takes over like I would expect or if the wild twists and turns keep going throughout.
Incredible oil, potent, addictive ouddiness, and honestly kind of jaw dropping. One of the most unique ouds I've experienced.

Where did the Drydown end up landing on your skin?

The wild twists and turns turned into more like long winding curves. For awhile the silani blue was sitting on top of a hindi amber and it was incredible.
Crazy longevity too. It was still really strong at the 4-5 hour mark when I fell asleep, and still had legs after I woke up.

Sounds awesome 💪🏼
Every time I wear it, I seem to experience something different. Changes as I wear it through the seasons, as well. Like its personality changes with the weather.
It’s a wild oil ! And if you really liked it - you should try 4 Emperors - which I added Hainan wood to mix and co-distilled. Crazy how that one addition changed it up. Related, but distinctly unique siblings.

That frangipani is platinum standard! And I only got the second tier oil, not the freshly distilled. It’s like a new material altogether except in the extreme far dry down; or when layered it starts to approach more mundane plumeria. Based on the quality of that and the attar sample they sent I can only imagine the quality of the ouds, or the sandalwoods.

@Faizal_p i believe yet unreleased Ceylon Royale Exclusif Sri Lanka 2025 - correction it is released
wow, another “banger” as the kids say these days. Mentholated fruit with subtle spice, hints of lacquer and fading into a lovely incense! Yes yes yes - i need to order at least a gram.
Faisal I hope to shake your hand one day and thank you for your craft - I may actually have someone coming to the show in Germany to do this on my behalf… 🙂
Found your low key drop on here from May

Smells so Oud
Totally agree with you here. This one fits into my precious samples box because unfortunately a bigger bottle is a tad out of reach. Beautiful oil.

That Oudh my brothers is Qandahaar 2.1
The cooking of this type of oudh is painstakingly difficult as it requires care and constant presence, maybe one day AI can sleep next to the pot to regulate everything but for now we have to do it. Some days it is a slower gradual cook, other days it's slightly higher heat. It's about reading the hydrosol.

Hello Salam dear Ouddicts 🙂

MesOud Havva
Habz Malinau sharing me new aspect each time I try it …
This is my absolute new favorite oil these days !
Today I get a mild walla patta tropically vanilla with that watery mineral note found in the best Silani oils I tried …
Still vanilla without the over sweetness that kind of cold ice cream feeling with nougatine Cookies aroma …
The petroleum accords falling down lightly and now I feel a light incensy oudiness like a narcotic aroma of something addicting!
Borneo King is full gasoline diesel aroma with raspberries and incensy oudiness !
Camphor and cola notes with a powdery dry and wet woodiness ! I get also a strong pineapple slices !
Such a lovely oil … I really love Borneo oils … maybe due to the rich different species available in this beautiful island… No doubt Borneo is one of my favorite region
This oil shared by our dear DR Prasun is one of the best representation of Borneo Island
MesOud Havva got the best part of both silani Profile … the tropically highest notes of banana mangoes with a coconuts in milkshake and later the pure mineral silani notes of clean oceanic aquatic scent … you can smelling in the background the resinous DNA of agarwood Mehmet signature
This is oil is addicting… I need to save more
Have Gooud swipe Oudheads 🙂

Looking forward to what @kban thinks as well. For me, it's a very boring oil, that is, if at all you can even smell it! Has that faintly vanillic scent in a woody backdrop and from the stick, you'll be struggling to find anything to smell, let alone deciding whether its good or bad.
